Here's the sequence of events. A person has a profile page on mywebsite.com. That page has a SEND MESSAGE link which forwards the person's AccountID to the cgi which creates a "Compose Your Message" page. When the submit button is hit all the info is forwarded to the program I have shown. All this happens on a dedicated server. The check referrers code was intended to assure that the submittal to the mail program was, indeed, coming from the aforementioned form residing on mywebsite.com. Only other members who have logged on can view the profiles noted above. At least I hope that's the case!. If I don't use the check referrer code, what would you suggest I do to ensure the sequence noted above? Thanks for any input!
